Hey Strawberry Fans!
I can’t believe the holiday cheer swirling around Strawberry, Kentucky. With the 70-degree Fahrenheit weather, it seems too early for Friendsgiving feasts, Christmas lights, and carols on every radio station…but here we are. With the first flakes comes Cherishing My Chuchunya! Patricika and Adam are looking for ARC readers, both on BookSprout and in the Strawberry Rumor Mill. The BookSprout campaign starts on 12/11 but you can sign up as part of the Strawberry Rumor Mill here. eBook ARCs will go out on 12/11/2024 to both campaigns.
As promised I have a gift for the fans of the Walk the Walk paranormal pirates series. Captain Teeth’s happily ever after will be part of the Monster Brides series. Our more-handsome-than-brainy Captain has met his lady love…before Chub met Catalina, and before Branko met Magda. Too bad the pudding-head mistook her for a common strumpet in Maude’s seedy tavern…and nobody humiliates a Kraken…even her fated mate. Preorder Hooking Captain Teeth to see how he wiggles his way out of an angry Kraken’s tentacles in his lovers-to-enemies-to-soulmates swashbuckling tale.
It wouldn’t be the holidays without parties, presents, and…comfy escapes for introverts. Join the Cupcakes and Contemporaries Fb group for their holiday party on 12/8/2023 where 50 authors (including myself) will be giving away prizes. If you loved the Fall into a Book event, this is right up your alley.
Recover from the holiday hustle and bustle with your next favorite read at the book fairs.
Book recs! Cherishing My Chuchunya is technically a ‘breeding romance’ since the Chuchunya clan is on the brink of extinction. Patricika feels the pressure to provide the next generation of snow monsters since she is one of 5 females left. This drives a wedge between her and Adam when she doubts a human can get the job done. Here are two more books with this trope on KU.
Thank you for joining the Strawberry Rumor Mill and supporting me on my writing journey. I hope you have perused the freebie section of my website just for Strawberry Rumor Mill members. Remember the password (Ryluk) needs a Capital R to be accepted. This year has been amazing from meeting so many readers in person to releasing the Chuchunya series. I can’t thank you enough for embracing my flying leap into monster romance and the snow monster clan. It’s been truly magical. Next year is stuffed full of monster romances including the expansion of Snuggling Under Snowdrifts, at least 2 more Monster Brides books, a super-secret erotic horror anthology (y’all know I can’t keep a secret so shhh…), and a charity anthology with the Kentuckiana Romance Writers. Thank you for joining me on the ride…I promise it will be wild!
Blessed Be and Let Magic Find You,
Marilyn Barr
